Journey to Everest: The Unsung Heroes of Servant Leadership
Celebrate and Inspire Hardworking Human Service Professionals                 More on this Uplifting Speech

This uplifting speech celebrates and inspires unsung heroes in the human services profession by getting to the
bottom of an unforgettable journey to the roof of the world. Peter didn't make it to the top of Mt. Everest. The truth of life is that not everyone touches the pinnacle of the world’s greatest mountain or ascends to be boss of a great organization. This is a story about the rest of us, the hardworking professionals behind the scenes who succeed when others succeed. Even those who achieve great heights like Sir Edmund Hillary have their team of nameless unsung heroes (350 Sherpas helped him conquer the summit!). It’s high time to honor these dedicated and under-appreciated servant leaders who give tirelessly and trust that in small way we can make a big difference by supporting others through the ups and downs of their “everyday Everest” challenges. This presentation celebrates the journey of life and it’s infinite possibilities for love with professionals who dedicate their time and talent to serving others – whether for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Themes: Adventure, Empowerment, Legacy, Motivation, Recognition, Servant Leadership, Team Spirit

Ideal Audience: Highly sought after topic as conference closing keynote for its renewed call to go forth and serve
with joy. Appreciated by hardworking front-line professionals and leaders in the people business of making a difference through compassionate and effective service, care and program delivery. This speech has an option to conclude with a heart-warming and uplifting closing slide show featuring conference delegates as unsung heroes. 

Energizing Work For Professionals
Manage Your Energy, Transform Your Results!                                              More on this Energetic Speech

Organizational performance is individual performance. Successful people who excel at energy management perform
at peak potential while maintaining balanced and focused dedication to the best in self, others and results. This invigorating presentation will help hardworking professionals explore fun ways to live and give with gusto through delicious mastery of the four dimensions of energy. Every one of our thoughts, emotions and behaviors has an energy consequence, for better or for worse.

to charge up yourself and your team to be radiant with light hearts, fresh faces and bright ideas that ensure less conflict, loyal team dynamics and greater customer service. The best outcome of renewed and focused energy and revived passion for our labors is that we will have more joyful energy at the end of the day to share with our family.
